PALANA is a distinguished show kennel located in Two Wells, Adelaide Plains, South Australia, specializing in the breeding of Miniature Pinschers. Established in 1986 by Robert, Betty, and Yvonne Griffin, the kennel initially operated under the successful prefix Kimberwalli, producing numerous Australian and Malaysian Champions. In 1999, the prefix was changed to Palana, but the commitment to breeding high-quality dogs with excellent temperament, soundness, and adherence to breed standards has remained steadfast. The kennel is dedicated to producing both show and pet quality puppies, ensuring that each dog embodies the best traits of the breed.
At PALANA, the breeding philosophy emphasizes the importance of type, temperament, and soundness. The kennel utilizes a combination of top-winning champion bloodlines from Australia, America, and England to achieve these goals. All dogs at PALANA are fully DNA tested, and the kennel occasionally offers puppies to discerning buyers. The Miniature Pinschers bred at PALANA come in a variety of accepted colors, including black, blue, chocolate, and solid red, with a focus on maintaining the breed’s integrity and standards.
In addition to breeding, PALANA is affiliated with the Miniature Pinscher Club of America and offers a unique benefit to first-time puppy buyers: a month of free pet insurance. This commitment to the well-being of their dogs extends beyond the sale, ensuring that new pet owners have the support they need. With a rich history of success in the show ring and a dedication to responsible breeding practices, PALANA continues to be a respected name in the world of Miniature Pinschers.
